Right after a bit of searching I've found one on eBay from the states that I think is the right one. The part number matches and in the list of cars it fits the pontiac gto is listed and also the actual monaro alternator part number.

However the end of it has a different fitting. Take it this is just to tightness it up so as long as the thread is the same it'll be right? Measurement seem to match but I'll double check them.

This is the one for sale (ignore the part number on this bit, the ad for the pulley has the proper numbers on)



And this is mine.



Sorry for the confusing thread, I'm usually half decent with mechanics but monaros aren't the easiest things to deal with.

Edit to say that I've found the genuine part on rockauto so will buy it from there. Slightly more expensive but I'd rather have the genuine parts fitted if possible. No idea what the import charges will be but can't find anywhere in the UK that sells them.

Do you not prepay import charges with Rockauto ? a bit like egays global shipping program ?

I've just ordered it and there wasn't any mention of import charges so I'll just wait and see. The site prices also didn't include vat so that's good to know for the future.

Let's hope this fixes it!
